OT - new user here, what does green mean? I assumed it was staff/moderators.
- mbel 9y agoIt means new user (hence green color).
- jancsika 9y agoI just assumed green meant admin or some kind of paying customer. I'd venture to guess green users could use this ambiguity to play subtle rhetorical tricks on users with a moderate number of points here.
- parthdesai 9y agoyour username will appear green till you get a certain amount of karma/upvotes.
- striking 9y agoI thought it was based on time.
- parthdesai 9y agohmm not sure. My username appeared green till i got 50/100 upvotes. I think that makes sense since the number upvotes on HN usually indicates that the person makes valid comments and is not trolling.
